We may never know the exact answer but we’re pretty sure a great beauty routine has a lot to do with it, so we asked legendary makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury to let us in on the must-haves for surviving fashion’s busiest month.

Products That Go The Distance

Even if you're not a model, finding the right beauty products is key to looking great despite a hectic schedule. Photo: Courtesy of NARS.

MAGIC CREAM

Flood your skin with moisture: Tired, rundown skin needs a super-hydrating moisturizer to create a natural, beautiful glow. I swear by my Magic Cream—it’s the magic dew of youth and luminosity in a jar. Enliven your complexion with my patented Tilbury Tap: Move your fingertips in a pitter-patter motion across the face, putting extra pressure underneath cheekbones and along the jawbone. Its aids lymphatic drainage, increases microcirculation and stops you from looking puffy in the morning.

MULTI-MIRACLE GLOW

Begin your day with my luxurious oil-based cleanser. Massage it into the skin with a Clarisonic, which acts like a 60-second at-home mini facial. It's perfect for when you’ve only got 15 minutes before your cab arrives to take you to the show.

BLUSH

Every girl needs a pretty blush to lift a tired, drained skin complexion and flush the face. Choose one with finely milled pearl powders like NARS orgasm for a smooth application.

TOM FORD UNDER-BRIGHTENER

This is like sleep in a pen—erase those revealing under-eye circles with the swipe of a brush.

EYELASH CURLER

Always use eyelash curlers. They are eye-widening, eye-brightening and awakening. My Life-changing Lashes acts like a push-up bra for your lashes, boosting them for full, fluttering Bambi lashes in seconds. Just clamp, mascara and go.
